Couple of good points on there, I forgot about us losing those coaches.

I think the bigger loss (and it wasn’t mentioned in the article) from the Packer coaching ranks was losing OLB coach (Smith) to the Vikings.
Smith groomed Gary from Day 1, and he held that Edge group together.

Very good point Danno! I know we give much credit to the player for having that natural ability and athleticism but there are times where a good/great position coach really makes a difference.

We will see if Rodgers is the elite QB to make average and below average WR's look better then they are

Depends on what they actually have in Watson and Doubs. A great QB can do something with developing players but it’s possible the group might just be old and bad. A bad skill position group can absolutely sink the entire offense.
